Wingnuttia never sleeps, even on holidays.
Yes, Joan of Arc was a loser. Moses was a failure. Churchill was an outcast and then an outcast again. The Lord Jesus himself was defeated. This is an important thing to remember at times like this. The election has been lost. But even the defeated never lose – even when they do – if they preserve that core of self deep within that no one but our Creator can touch.
You can do your own casting for this musical. Joan of Arc could be played by Marilyn Musgrove (if she ever comes out of hiding to concede the race). Churchill could be played by Sen. Ted Stevens…he fought in that war. As for Jesus, why not the Muslim-bashing congressman from Virginia, Virgil Goode? None of these folks will feel like they really lost if they just ‘preserve that core of self deep within that no one but our Creator can touch.’ Right?
Wingnuts.
